Continued discussion of and possib/e action on recommending that the City <br />install a grass landing strip at the airport. Shane Grissom, City of Paris <br />Engineering Department, stated that Option 1 shown on the map goes over a <br />shallow drainage box. He recommended Option 3 because the other finro <br />options could create drainage problems if we needed to level out the ground <br />in any way. Jack Ashmore stated that it won't need to be raised, we will just <br />prepare the surface. Billy Copeland stated the only option is to do Option <br />3. Vic Ressler stated Option 3 is out of the way. The Board asked who <br />would move fences, grade, and mow it down? Pete Kampfer stated that we <br />need to keep in the custody and maintenance of the City, and put it in the <br />budget because third party dealings could get bad and create liability for us. <br />Motion was made by Bill Boothe, seconded by Pete Kampfer, to approve <br />Option 3 on the contingency that maintenance and funding be done by the <br />City. Motion carried 7-0. <br />000014 <br />
